Authentik Security, Part Four

Configure Authentik Enable LDAPS I've spent some time looking into this today and it appears the issue is that the certificate is set up correctly, but that my desktop does not trust it. It looks like the best practice would be to set upa CA to issue and

Authentik Security, Part Three

Configure Authentik So I'd like to connect my lab's Active Directory to Authentik. It would be great to use the accounts already set up there, and I'll need to know that's working first before I connect my other applications right? So this

So I have a couple of applications up and running now, which means I know have a bunch of different usernames and passwords. It'd be great if I can replace them all and just have one login across these applications. It seems like two big players in the

I feel like starting a new project today, and this one has been on my list for a while. I struggle with the modern day YouTube. Videos are constantly disappearing from the platform for a number of different reasons. Which honestly sucks having a video you've enjoyed just

Calibre-Web, Part Three

Calibre-Web, Part Three

Troubleshooting Well Calibre-Web is really slick looking, but I've run into two problems. The first is a permission disparity between Calibre Content Server and Calibre-Web. Calibre Server is using root while Calibre-Web is using david. I would think it's ultimately a small problem and should be

Upgrade Bookstacks to v23.02

Upgrade Bookstacks to v23.02

So Bookstack has released version 23.02 and it has a breaking change of requiring PHP8. Very similar to Upgrade Monica to v4.0. So the first thing I do is check on what is currently running on BOOKSTACK-01. * php --version PHP 7.4.33 (cli) (built: Nov 8 2022

Calibre-Web

So while I was trying to find some solutions to all the problems I ran into with Calibre I had come across people mentioning Calibre-Web and how it is a much better GUI and front end to use than Calibre's. Since I ran into some road blocks trying

Calibre

Over the past few years I have kept hearing how great it can be to run a Calibre server for your personal eBooks. Any time I have looked into it, Calibre's documentation has just never made sense to me as far what I actually need to do. Yesterday

Document Update Process Well I've had SnipeIT and SNIPE-01 turned off for some time, I just haven't had the man hours to start using the software. I turn it back on today to take a look. I'm assuming there's been an update

PhotoPrism, Part Six

PhotoPrism, Part Six

So last night I was playing around in PhotoPrism and re-indexed my images. Half disappeared. Each time I ran an index half would be removed. It turns out the container was no longer writing to the network mount, but to the local disk instead. I'm guessing that happened

Finally coming back to FileRun after a while. Well, when I try to bring up the webpage it is erroring out. Interesting. The virtual machine is running so let's see if we can SSH in and see what's gone wrong. Steps performed on FILERUN-01 * sudo apt

I noticed today that PhotoPrism has pushed out a number of updates, but it appears that the Watchtower service does not actually upgrade it right now. I went through PhotoPrism's documentation and found the steps needed to complete an update. It's pretty straight forward: * cd photoprism

Network Mounts Randomly Dropping

So I have noticed a few times where my CIFS mounts on my linux servers crash whenever my fileserver reboots. It's a shame they don't detect when the connection drops and then try to re-establish it. Then again my fileserver does not reboot very frequently, pretty

FileRun

So PhotoPrism is pretty darn cool! It looks great and has some advanced features that are fantastic, but it lacks user management for me to really share my photos with others. I came across FileRun for sharing files and a few people mentioned they use it to share photos. Well
